Let Manchester City check. 700 million check price.

messi will take the club to court over that and the court will (rightly) rule that messi's 'option to leave for free' clause is legally valid. there is simply no good legal ground for the club to stand on. they will lose that suit and then messi will go for free.

either they negotiate with city and try to get 100m, or they will get nothing. simple as that. its exactly why others here are correctly calling this club the worst run in the world

Negotiate with City for what?

Messi has said his contract is up and City want him for free.

How can City negotiate and Messi still argue he is out of contract?

Then why does City don't present him already? He should be doing medical with City if both Messi and City think he is free. City and Messi aren't totally convinced he's free, and are afraid to not be liable in a suit.

PLEASE wake up people and stop going round in circles

Messi intends to LEAVE ON A FREE using his contract clause. City have NO INTENTION of negotiating with Barca, no player swap, no money, nada. Messi's idea of a 'friendly exit' is leaving on a free without taking the club to court.

I would just let him leave for free. The smart BARCA fans will see him for the coward he is during this saga whilst FC Messi cult will worship him still and laugh at Barto as Barca struggle. atleast most of them will be City fans by the start of next season

Who has said City 100% believe that Messi is already free?

That is irrelevant.

The moment City negotiate they are contradicting the stance that Messi is out of contract.

Seems City wont negotiate, will have no plans to and if Messi leaves it will be peddled as Barca refusing to and Messi for 'love of club' wanted it to happen.

Not too fussed about him leaving on the playing side as think it is probably what he and club need at moment.

The worst part is City getting him for free and the amount of exposure Barca and La Liga will lose.

Doubt there will even be a top 20 player in world in the league and the rest of it is as poor as can remember.

Would not be surprised if likes of Mbappe when it comes to it move to EPL as it is the place to be week in week out for mixture of exposure, cash and quality.

Its own atmosphere?
Toni Kroos (Real Madrid) "Messi being out of Barcelona means that Barcelona are missing one of their best weapons, I don't believe Messi will come to Real Madrid." [einfach mal luppen]
